This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: ECL 222 Oct 31, genetic diversity a valuable resource also considered establishing in-situ conservation, green revolution a response to the red revolution, not sufficient must also account for the social setting of the farmers, Genetic Erosion early menitons green revolution, A biological framework for understanding farmers' plant breeding so often farmer practices are interpreted to intuit farmer preferences, international conference on plant genetic resources named genetic diversity a valuable resource, the social setting of the farmers eg maize crossover: poor man's maize produces less but requires less weeding while green revolution maize produces more, but only if you have the resources to weed it at exactly the right time., create an international system of gene banks also maintained as gardens, Genetic Erosion early menitons 1973, 1973 first international conference on plant genetic resources, create an international system of gene banks now over 1000 worldwide, in-situ conservation but dismissed it because of loss of traditional ag, farmers wouldn't know what they were conseerving, etc..., create an international system of gene banks in USA, Genetic Erosion early menitons 1930's, create an international system of gene banks in Turkey, genetic diversity a valuable resource decided to create an international system of gene banks, predicted to completely replace traditional agriculture because pop'n increase, Genetic Erosion con there are so many contradictory examples that it is difficult to establish this model as valid, create an international system of gene banks in Europe, maize agronomic superiority not sufficient
